यत् किं चिद् दशवर्षाणि संनिधौ प्रेक्षते धनी । भुज्यमानं परैस्तूष्णीं न स तत्लब्धुमर्हति ॥ १४७ ॥
(But in general) whatever (chattel) an owner sees enjoyed by others during ten years, while, though present, he says nothing, that (chattel) he shall not recover.
If (the owner is) neither an idiot nor a minor and if (his chattel) is enjoyed (by another) before his eyes, it is lost to him by law; the adverse possessor shall retain that property.
आधिः सीमा बालधनं निक्षेपोपनिधिः स्त्रियः । राजस्वं श्रोत्रियस्वं च न भोगेन प्रणश्यति ॥ १४९ ॥
A pledge, a boundary, the property of infants, an (open) deposit, a sealed deposit, women, the property of the king and the wealth of a Srotriya are not lost in consequence of (adverse) enjoyment.
